Youxi, the maid of space

Chapter 56

When children are full of energy, they are very jumpy, but they are also prone to fatigue. In the carriage, An An fell asleep according to Ziyue after a while, and Ziyue also put An'an on the seat beside Zhao Huangling's lap as Zhao Huangling said.In fact, in this carriage, Ziyue still wanted to protect An An in his arms, no matter how sometimes the bumps could be cushioned, so that An An could sleep better.

It's just that she hugged An'an, Zhao Huangling's eyes were like sharp swords every time she looked over, she really didn't dare to pluck the hair from the tiger's mouth, because then her end would be very miserable.However, even if she put An An aside, she kept looking there with her lowered eyes, keeping An An in her sight all the time.

Seeing this, the Empress Dowager smiled kindly, but Zhao Huangling frowned.

Probably there was the Queen Mother, so Ziyue and Zhao Huangling were not as relaxed as they were when they were alone, and they talked about everything. In addition, An An also went to bed after the transfer, and the carriage suddenly became very quiet.

It is most easy to feel drowsy when it is quiet, and after a while, Ziyue's eyelids began to drop with the shaking of the carriage, and he cheered up several times, but he couldn't hold on anymore, and slowly fell asleep leaning on An'an.

Seeing this, Zhao Huangling took out a silk quilt and put it on one big and one small. While covering the quilt, he even touched An An's smooth and tender face, and secretly smiled.

The queen mother squinted her eyes and said with a smile: "It's hot, covering them will make them sweat."

"Ning Zhaoyuan and An An's physiques are both warm in winter and cool in summer, so covering them won't get in the way, and it's even more difficult to handle if they catch a cold." Zhao Huangling explained lightly.

Queen Mother' Oh? ’ With a groan, she laughed a little weirdly, and after recovering for a while, she asked casually: "How does the emperor plan to deal with Shengci?"

"Let her go quietly." Zhao Huangling said expressionlessly.

The queen mother sighed slightly when she heard the words, looking back on the past, her face was stained with sadness, and she said lightly: "What about the queen?" After a pause, she said again: "The Ai family can see that the queen is not so cruel and merciless. Yes, the emperor might as well have a good talk with her, the Xu family's roots are too deep, although the Xu family's current situation is not as good as before, but now we can't completely restrain them, if there is a buffer, maybe we can fight without bloodshed."

"Empress Mother is right, I will go to find her." Zhao Huangling said indifferently: "Empress Mother, do you want to take a rest too?"

The queen mother smiled and said 'en'.

Afterwards, the Queen Mother closed her eyes and rested her mind, and the two of them didn't speak any more. Zhao Huangling picked up a book and flipped through it. Occasionally, she turned her head to look at the situation of the mother and child over there.I saw the one big and one small getting closer and closer, An An was basically clinging to Zi Yue's arms, and the two of them were sound asleep, Zhao Huangling was a little bit dark.

After an unknown amount of time, Wei Xi's voice sounded outside: "The emperor, the queen mother, has arrived at the gate of the palace."

Zhao Huangling gave a faint 'En', and put away the book in her hand. The Queen Mother opened her eyes and moved her shoulders, as if she had slept well.

Seeing that the mother and son over there still didn't react at all, Zhao Huangling frowned, and said thoughtfully: "Really, I still sleep so deeply, I don't know if I should sleep at night."

The queen mother smiled suddenly, and said: "Ziyue has a way with An Anke. Aijia heard that he has planned what An An should do every hour of the day. I am afraid it is the same for sleeping. Don't worry, the emperor, even if An An is not good at night. Sleep, Ziyue will definitely find a way."

Zhao Huangling was noncommittal, there were no eunuchs or maids in the carriage, and he was about to get out of the carriage, so he could only resign himself to his fate and gently pushed the pusher, saying, the children can be ignored, the adults must wake up.

Unexpectedly, Zizi turned over and slowly opened his eyes, and An An in her arms seemed to hear something, wriggled her little nose, and clicked her lips twice.

Then, the older one sat up first, rubbed his eyes, the younger ones hadn't opened yet, and crawled into the older one's arms completely by feeling, the older one and the younger hugged him like this, Ziyue was already a little awake , when she saw the empress dowager and the emperor staring at her, she trembled instantly and became sober.

An'an was yawning, and when she reached the top, she was infected by Ziyue's shaking, her small body twitched, her head rubbed against Ziyue's arms, and she was fully awake.

When he tilted his head and saw Zhao Huangling, he stretched out his hand to hug him, and softly shouted: "Hug, Father!"

Seeing her sleepy-eyed but very cute son, who wanted him to hug her eagerly, Zhao Huangling couldn't think of a reason to refuse, so she stretched out her hand and easily hugged her son's soft little body into her arms.

The queen mother smiled when she saw this, and said to Zi: "Hurry up and arrange your clothes, they are all wrinkled by An'an."

In the past, she always felt regretful that the emperor did not feel the love of his father, but now An'an let her see the pure and harmonious happiness between father and son, and this trace of regret gradually disappeared.

Zi Yue also nodded with a smile, his face flushed inexplicably, and he tugged on the clothes that An An had scratched.It just seems that the time is too long, even after she pulls the cloth, there are still marks.There is no way, raising a child is sometimes necessary to be untidy, and after tidying up as much as possible, Ziyue said that there is no way to make it better.

Zhao Huangling teased the son in her arms, gave Ziyue a look and then stopped looking at her. In his opinion, An'an is more fun than Ziyue.It's a pity that Zhao Huangling was full of energy, and An An, who had just woken up, was a little listless, and kept patting off those big hands without interest. She leaned her little head on Zhao Huangling's shoulder, and sometimes rubbed it against her shoulders, as if she was looking for comfort, looking for comfort. Like warm.

Soon, the convoy stopped, Wei Xi opened the door of the carriage outside, Zhao Huangling handed An An back to Zi Yue before walking out, and when An An returned to Zi Yue's embrace, she quietly lay on her shoulder, just When I saw the Queen Mother, I called out 'Grandma Huang'.

After waking up, they usually have no energy. When they got off the carriage, the Empress Dowager asked Ziyue to take the child back quickly. Zhao Huangling then ordered people to send Concubine Lin, Concubine Zhuang, Liu Liangren and others back to their respective palaces.Especially Concubine Lin, who is almost seven months old and has twins, her belly is really big.

After Ziyue went back with An'an in her arms, Nanny Li and the others were still in charge of packing up the things. The mother and son had nothing to do, so they just wandered around in the yard.Ziyue did this to restore An'an's spirit. Sure enough, after a while, facing the nature, An'an's spirit returned, and he began to dance and play with Ziyue.

Entering August, the palace is about to prepare for the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet. In ancient times, this festival was very valued, reunion, and everyone hoped that the family would be neat, harmonious and beautiful.

The imperial concubine is the busiest among the concubines in organizing the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet. Now there are three concubines in the palace who are pregnant, and Ziyue is no longer so conspicuous. Now she will take An An out for a stroll when she is free. He is knowledgeable.

An An, who is almost one year old, is growing up very fast. Although she is not very fluent in her articulation, just jumping out two words, her vocabulary is much richer.An An is already learning to walk, and sometimes Zi Yue likes to toss him and lure him to walk, but every time he fails, the toy lure always fails, because An An uses all four limbs to crawl quickly every time.

In order to get rid of An An's habit, she asked the emperor to find her a carpenter eunuch, because she couldn't directly draw the modern baby walker drawings, so she could only tell the eunuch whether it could be like making a wheelchair, It can be rolled, but it looks like a child, and the surroundings are sealed, so you can only sit down from above.

The eunuch also quickly understood Ziyue's consciousness, and made a finished product within a few days. Make some cushions for the scooter, and bind them to the wood, so that you can sit on it comfortably without being irritated.

When the final product was finished, Ziyue was very satisfied and rewarded the eunuch with many things.The eunuch was also flattered. In fact, he just acted according to Ning Zhaoyuan's words, and didn't use his brain to think at all.What Ziyue did was just to divert people's attention. This baby walker will definitely be known by everyone. Her research on medical skills was amazing, but now she still has these things, which makes people doubt her identity even more.

It's not that Ziyue is boasting about herself. She buys everything from the smart world, which has nothing to do with her, but others don't know.In most people's minds, since this person is so good and can do almost everything, it is really puzzling why he entered the palace to be a low-level maid in the first place, and there is often some conspiracy in it.

Besides, she can't do business and make a lot of money like the heroines in some novels now. This thing is only for An An, so there is no need to show off the limelight.

An An is always very interested in novelty things. When he sat in the car, his two short legs just touched the ground, and he found that he no longer struggled to walk. An An happily ran around the house. The wish of the day is to exercise An An's leg strength.

As for the achievements of the baby walker, Zhao Huangling was the first to express his appreciation for the baby walker. He watched An An sitting in it with short legs thumping like walking.On the spot, he asked Ziyue about the composition of the thing, and when he learned that the drawings were all with the eunuch, he didn't ask any more, but he was thinking about something.

Afterwards, Ziyue took advantage of the situation and asked the carpenter to sit in a child seat. An An is grown up now, and he can no longer rely on others to hold him to eat. He has to learn to sit by himself. That's another meaning.

After gaining the experience of the baby walker, baby carriages also came out. This time, Ziyue didn't give any advice at all. The eunuch researched it all by himself. In the end, Ziyue just happily took it and used it.

When Wang Chongyuan heard about walkers and baby carriages, she was surprised, and even more suspicious of Ning Zhaoyuan's identity as a time-traveling woman, but when people inquired carefully, they were all made by the carpenter and had nothing to do with Ning Zhaoyuan. The matter, but even so, Wang Chongyuan always felt that there was some sense of disobedience, and she couldn't figure it out, so she didn't think about it any more.

In ancient times, Luban was able to produce such exquisite things, and people in this era can certainly do it, and there will be innovations for what there is demand for.Originally, this era has never been seen in previous history textbooks, so some things are developed ahead of schedule, which is also very normal.

The people in the palace are busy with each other, but they have nothing to do with each other.

On a certain day, Zhao Huangling finally took the time to go to Fengqi Palace. When everyone learned about this, they couldn't help but startled everyone's attention.The emperor has not taken the initiative to visit the queen for quite some time, so this time he went to Fengqi Palace, was he simply visiting the queen?
The empress knew that Zhao Huangling was coming, she just smiled wryly in her heart, she recognized the relationship between husband and wife very clearly, now she and the emperor are not even regarded as respectful guests, they are completely strangers.Coupled with the opposition of their respective backgrounds, it is doomed that there will be no good communication.

Zhao Huangling didn't gossip with the empress, and directly made it clear to the future that the empress dowager and the empress can be said to be the last ones, he can't take down the Xu family in one fell swoop, but it is more than enough to deal with them two.The Xu family can also be eliminated slowly, it will only take more time and manpower.

The queen was silent when she heard the words, and after a while, she smiled coldly, turned her head and said, "Is the emperor forcing the courtiers and concubines to make a choice?"

As a member of the Xu family, the emperor now asks her to kill her own aunt. To put it nicely, this is also to protect their Xu family. If the aunt does not die, their Xu family will always have a glimmer of hope, and will never be willing to be subservient to others. However, if the aunt died, the Xu family would despair, fall apart, and become ordinary, thus preserving the existence of the Xu family.Choosing the latter is a wise decision, does the emperor mean that?

Over the years, although she had a trace of hatred for her aunt in her heart, if she was asked to do something, she really couldn't do it.Aunt is her relative, how could she harm her aunt? !For the first time, she felt terrible, because when faced with her own freedom and the life and death of her aunt, she actually hesitated, not knowing which one to choose.

Didn't she still decisively choose to hold on to her aunt's life?Why would she hesitate, maybe deep down in her heart, she values ​​her freedom and life more.

"You should understand that you have survived until now because you are valuable." Zhao Huangling said coldly.

The queen was taken aback, smiled bitterly, and suddenly became dejected, and said: "Does the emperor really think that the concubine has value? The concubine always thought that she was just a useless pawn, but she did not expect that in the eyes of the emperor, she was a valuable existence." .”

Zhao Huangling just wanted to make a quick decision on this matter, closed his eyes and said indifferently: "As long as the queen agrees, I can give the queen the freedom and worry-free life she wants."

He understood very well that the empress's illness was largely due to the unresolved depression in her heart. If she let go of everything in her heart, maybe she would live a long time longer.It's just that it all depends on whether the Queen is willing or not.

The queen thought about it, her expression was tangled, she bit her lips, closed her eyes for a moment, and quickly asked: "Is what the emperor said is true?"

Zhao Huangling opened his eyes, smiled coldly, and said, "I will do what I say."

Seeing his expression, the queen immediately felt relieved, and said softly: "The concubine is willing."

After hearing these four words, Zhao Huangling got up and walked directly to the door.The goal has been achieved, he doesn't want to leave one more in this place, because it has always been the empress's residence, and there are many bad memories of his childhood.

The queen collapsed on the back of the chair completely limply, with tears streaming from the corners of her eyes.Muttered in his mouth: Auntie, I'm sorry.

The Mid-Autumn Festival is coming soon, and An'an will be one year old after the Mid-Autumn Festival. In ancient times, one-year-old children needed to grasp the week.Zi Yue was not afraid that An An would make a fool of himself that day, but he was afraid of catching things that shouldn't be caught, such as jewelry and flowers. She didn't care about such things, but under the watchful eyes of everyone, it was inevitable that others would use this incident to make fun of him in the future.

An An is her own son, and she would make fun of it occasionally, but no one would know about it anyway, and it would be harmless, but she would not allow others to make fun of him maliciously.

Therefore, Ziyue trained An An in advance, and she chose the most conservative thing, bamboo slips and books.It represents profound knowledge and a bright future. There is nothing to talk about if you catch this kind of person.

On this day, Ziyue fell down and coaxed An An to come over with a bamboo slip. fail.

In the next few days, Ziyue coaxed An An with bamboo slips and books, letting him get acquainted with him as soon as possible. The hard work was not in vain. An An was finally able to pick out the bamboo slips and books from a pile of things and hand them to her. Said happy for a long time.

One day, when Zhao Huangling came over, he found that Zi Yue was carrying some items that An An was familiar with, so he became interested and watched from the side.

Ziyue immediately showed off her achievements to Zhao Huangling, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, An An can grasp bamboo slips and books now." After speaking, he guided An An to choose one from the pile.

Unexpectedly, when Ziyue watched An An's actions with great interest, what An An grabbed suddenly made her dumbfounded.

Zhao Huangling was on the side, looking at An An, whose eyes were smiling like crescent moons, and handed him the thing in his hand, his face was a little stiff: "This is the result of your training, grabbing the wine order chip?"

Ziyue was frightened for no reason, and she didn't know what was wrong with her. To cover up her emotions, she touched her ears, lowered her head, and gave that brat a bitter look. Didn't the emperor catch him well before he came? Yes, why did it suddenly change? !
Zhao Huangling smiled lightly and took away the wine order chip from An An's hand, hugged him in his arms, and brought him a general helmet. Happy, and turned to Ziyue with a cold face: "In the future, don't teach An An to catch things, so as not to teach the child to only eat, drink and play."

An An played with the general helmet for a while, then threw the general helmet aside, pulled Zhao Huangling's sleeve and said with a smile: "play"

At this moment, Zhao Huangling's eyes turned coldly to Zi Yue.

Seeing this, Ziyue bowed his head even more, with a humble expression, but the words he spit out were not so pleasant: "Your Majesty, how can it be said that the wine order chip is only for eating, drinking and having fun? I read an explanation in the book that the wine order chip is for use. It is a special utensil for holding the silver chips of the wine order. The wine order is a drinking game to add to the fun at the banquet. The wine order can enliven the atmosphere, connect feelings, and enhance friendship. It can not only show the literary talent and talent of the wine orderer, but also test the wine order The agility and quick wit of the author. To become such a person, it can be said that he has made friends all over the world and has a pleasing personality, which is very good."

Zhao Huangling snorted coldly, and stood up holding An An: "I will train An An's Zhou Zhou, and you are not allowed to teach him privately in the future." Make friends all over the world's wine order chip.

Is it necessary for the prince to take the initiative to make friends? !

Looking at the back of Zhao Huangling going away, An An was still lying on his shoulder and staring at her steadily, her big black eyes just watched quietly. Surprisingly, An An was carried away quietly this time. , Zi Yue felt abandoned by the father and son.

Not daring to catch up, Ziyue curled his lips: What an awkward man. In an era when interpersonal relationships were not important, he thought everyone had the same cold face as you, and he didn't have a single friend!My son must be lively and cheerful in the future, and make a lot of friends!

She made up her mind that she must not let An An be taught to collapse by this man.

Since Zhao Huangling took An An away at noon, he ordered people to search for all the items in Jichang Garden, which made Zi Yue, who was already depressed, jump up in anger. Why did this man do such a terrible thing!As An An's mother, she can't teach her children to catch Zhou.It was just a mistake, why are you so serious!

"It's too much! It's too much!" Zi Yue vented his anger by grabbing the corner of the cushion, almost pulling the hem out.

Yufu and Xiaotao looked at the restless master and looked at each other.In the end, Yufu persuaded: "Master, since the emperor teaches the eldest prince himself, you don't have to worry, it's a good thing for the eldest prince."

Xiao Tao then echoed: "Yes, master, this is what the emperor expects from the eldest prince."

Ziyue felt even worse after hearing this. She believed in the words 'hope your child will become a dragon, hope your daughter will become a phoenix', but she thinks it's better not to put pressure on the child, he can do whatever he wants in the future, and don't just obey. adult opinion.She asked An An to grasp the bamboo slips, just to deal with the matter of Zhou Zhou, and she didn't really hope that An An would become a learned person in the future.

Yufu and Xiaotao didn't understand what was going on in her heart, and she felt that there was no need to explain, anyway, since An'an can't teach Zhou Zhou now, that's not the case, let his father fuck it!After thinking for a while, Zi Yue locked himself in the room angrily, and went to sleep.

On the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival, there is a night banquet in the palace, which is also the highlight.Apart from a lot of delicious food, the banquet in the palace really has nothing to do.

At the banquet, the child seat that I made earlier worked. An An sat next to Ziyue the whole time. .

Because it was the Mid-Autumn Festival, Concubine Zhuang, Concubine Lin, and Liu Liang all came. There were many pregnant women, and there were many things to pay attention to. The concubine probably expected these, so many of the dishes were light and refreshing. I ate a lot.

It's just that the mother and son were eating happily here, but suddenly there was a situation far away. When Ziyue looked up, he saw that the place where Concubine Lin and Liu Liangren were sitting was surrounded by people, and there was a commotion.
